I had two evenings of drinking over the weekend, but on the journey up and the journey back, I didn't even consider having a drink, even though I was getting the train and not driving. A real shift in my mindset.0

Sounds like a good plan and a nice break plus you'll have extra cash to enjoy yourself.
I had my AF night as planned
1 AFD please Shaggy.
Feels good to get one on the board and I'm delighted how easy I found it to jump back on the wagon.0 -
Morning :hello:

ShaggyxWhat do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.0 -
